Wild Bill HickOk's Romance.

From the Chicago News.
about year before he died ! met
Wild Bill Hickok on tram on this
road" said Luther Latin Mills, as
we were borne southwark over the
Chicago and Alton road one afte.-
noon recently. "Of course | talked to
him about himself i asked him how
many men he had killed. He replied
that he had killed thirty-two in 'pri-
vate fights, and he didn't know how
many he had killed in the war OF the
rebellion and in frontier skirmishes.
/ asked him il he had ever visited Chi
cago. He said he had, few years be-
fore our meeting, and then he told me
the one gentle romance Of his life.
"Gen. Phil Sheridan and party had
engaged Bill as a guide on a buffalo
hunting expedition. Sheridan took n
liking to Bill and insisted upon his re-
turning to Chicago with him and max
ing n visit. Bill came, and remained
for some time at Sheridan's house.
"The first Sunday after got to Chi
cago,' said Bill, Sheridan said to me
that he was going to church and
would like to have me 60 along. |
hadn't been to church for twenty
years, but I'd just as lief go. So we
went to Plymouth Church. down on
Wabash or Michigan avenue. The
Teller at the door knew Sheridan, and
he took us away up in front, near the
preacher. About the time the sermon
began an old, white haired man and
young woman came into the pew III
front OF us. could see only the side OF
the woman's face. but Ifelt sure KNEW
her. Well, when we all got up to re-
ceive the benediction saw the young
woman's face, and my heart come
right up into my neck, for knew her.
There was the only woman lever loved,
and had loved her ever since was q
boy, down in La Sale county. She
was Maria Baldwin, and the old man
with her was her father, Herman
Baldwin. ! won't tell you why /
didn't marry her, but my love for her
was one of the reasons why went
out west.
"'When saw her face and knew
who she was | just bolted down the
aisle aud out oil the church, and stood
at the door, waiting for her. When
she came out | went up to her and
said: "Maria, do you know meg" She
looked at me a minute and SAID:
""No sir; | do not"
a. WELL" said |, kind bracing
MP, 81 am Willie Kickok."
"Well, you should seen her. The
tears came in her eyes, and she took
my hand in hers and held it. Then
both OF them insisted on my going to
dinner with them. We talked all after
noSn and away into the night about
old times in La Sale county, and |
tell you it was the happiest day of my
life. But could't stand it to stay in
Chicago any longer. and ] started for
the west next day"
81 was much interested in this
story" resumed Mr.. Mills, TOR | knew
Mr.. Baldwin. and | felt more kindly
toward Wild Bill asked him il he
expected to return to the west after
his visit TO Chicago. He said he did,
and that when he lett me he would bid
me goodbye forever. He had great
many desperate enemies, and from his
calculation of the law of chances he
could not live more than year. Sure
enough, within ten months ofthe time
met him on the train he was shot
in the back and killed in q saloon out

A JOLLY AFFAIR.
The Mennerchor's Second Anniversary
Befittingly Celebrated.

The second anniversary of the Chey-
n n Mannerchor was celebrated in ele-
CANT style last evening in Keefe hall.
The early part of the evening was devot-
ed to a concert, which was commenced by
an overture rendered by Prof. Pasmore
and Prof. Hutchinson. f. W. Lafrentz
was then introduced by L.. Kabis, and de-
livered an address in the German Ian
guage. Exactly what he said the re-
porter was unable to catch, but there
were many present who were more fortu-
nate in this respect, and by the applause
and laughter, indicated that the future
legislator did admirably.
After a chorus had been finely rendered
by the Mennerchor under the leadership
of Chas. Wilseck, a solo was SUM by H.
Dillman in a manner to provoke hearty
applause.
A strong vocal combination was the
mixed chorus rendered by the Manner
Choir, assisted by Miss Zehner, Miss Kew
ley, Mrs. Buechner and Mrs. Zehner.
A very ENJOYABLE number was a quar-
tette rendered by Messrs. Dillman,
Zehner, Buechner and Goehre. Tie
remainder of the programme consisted of
an orchestral selection, a duet by Miss
Zehner and Mr.. Buechner, a piano solo
by Miss Mamie Buechner, a quartette by
Messrs. Dillman, Wilseck, Zehner and
Buechner, the entertainment concluding
with a jolly operette enacted by the mem-
bers of the Maennerchor.
AT the conclusion of the concert the
floors were cleared for dancing, which
was kept up with vigor and pleasure I'M
til a good-sized programme lad been
disposed of. The entertainment through
out was a decidedly enjoyable affair.

Anti Chicago Meeting.

A well attended and interesting meet
ing of citizens of the Third ward was
held in the office of the Empire house on
West Seventeenth street last evening.
G. w. Clark, Milton Taylor, Richard
Rodgers, al. Thompson, Jas. Kerrigan,
Mr.. Thomas and Mr.. Knott were among
the number present, all of whom were
well known gentlemen and representative
citizens. The sense of the meeting was
that the citizens were disguised with the
manner in which they are being treated
by the mayor and council in regard to the
oft.requested suppression of the haunts
of vice in that portion of the city called
Chicago" They finally concluded to
either compel the mayor to enforce the
ordinances, or notify owners of houses
who rent to immoral tenants hat they
will be prosecuted to the full extent of
the law. The assemblage adjourned be-
fore definitely deciding which line of &C
ton to pursue.

70 postpone, when the duty for i'm
mediate is clear, is always unwise. Espec-
tally is it SO when increasing i'll health
calls for a resort to medication. Diseases
of the kidneys and bladder are often of
swift growth-always of fatal tendency if
not combatted at the outset. We have
all-even those of us who are not remark
ably well instructed-heard something of
the danger attending Bright's disease,
diabetes. and other diseases Of the kidneys
or bladder. Let no one be foolhardy
enough to be inactive. Hostetter's Stom,

statu quo. The mayor will not sign the
ordinance and the company positively
refuses to proceed with work under the
old agreement, and insist hat the line be
allowed to turn westward from Ferguson
street on Twentieth instead of Nineteenth
street. If the vote cast on the ordinance
Tuesday night remains unchanged it can
be adopted over the mayors veto, and
the kicks OF residents of Ferguson
street who object TO the construction of

neighborhood of Atlantic City is construct
a canal twenty five miles long with a fall
of ten and one-half feet to the mile for the
purpose of engaging in hydraulic mining
on a large scale. This immense under
taking is nearing completion after an ex-
penditure of $3.50, 900. Water is con-
Quoted from Lake Christiana over the
mountains, where its course has been
blasted in solid rock for miles. Part of
the work is a viaduct or fume 500 feet
long and seventy-tive feet high. Two
miners at Atlantic city made $I2,O 900 last
winter by treating ore in an a~rastro, a
Continuance which handles about one ton
per day and which must be reconstructed
every week.

absence of just twenty-five years and two
months. At Boney Earnest's ranch on

and on all sides is indisputable evidence
that Wyoming will eventually become

where men will W and cultivate 16C
